Exploring The Trend In Teenage Rhinoplasty

Daunting is a great word to describe the teenage years, where insecurities and fears abound. Additional daunting complications are the facial changes that accompany puberty.

The sinuses grow, changing and enlarging the shape of the face and jaw.

The nose changes shape and grows and may become just one more thing thing to be self-conscious about.

If you are the parent of a teen who is considering rhinoplasty, here are five things to keep in mind:

Rhinoplasty, or “nose job” is the most common teenage cosmetic plastic surgery procedure. The American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) states that the number of teenage clients receiving plastic surgery today is more than five times the number it was fifteen years ago.

Like any cosmetic surgery, a rhinoplasty is a very personal decision. It is one of the most demanding of all cosmetic surgery procedures, especially for teens, and timing is critical. Operating on the nose before its growth has stabilized may result in unwanted nasal changes and disruption of facial growth.

The appropriate age for rhinoplasty surgery is governed by many variables. Ideally, patients should have reached both physical and emotional maturity before proceeding with surgery. The optimum time is around the age of 16 for girls and after the age of 17 or 18 for boys. However, if there is a congenital defect or post-traumatic deformity that causes serious breathing problems, surgery may be done earlier.

For the most part, a rhinoplasty is irreversible and teens need to understand the significance of their decision. The nose is located in the center of the face. Their appearance will be altered forever. However, the majority of teens who undergo rhinoplasty report high levels of satisfaction.

It is important to clarify your goals and expectations and consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon, such as Dr. Thompson, who will evaluate your request, discuss the procedure with you, answer any questions you may have and determine if you would be a good rhinoplasty candidate.
